Yesterday, December 15, 2009, was a historic day for marriage equality in D.C.. The city council passed same-sex marriage which now must go to Mayor Adrian Fenty for approval. Congress has 30 working days after approval to reject this law but there is no serious threat yet.
Rep. Jason Chaffetz of the Mormon state of Utah is only member of Congress that is actively opposing this D.C. same-sex marriage bill. Rep. Jason Chaffetz is the nutty paranoid Congressman who is afraid of TSA airport screening because he thinks employees are laughing at his small penis on a computer screen. TSA employees are looking for items that could potentially cause harm not some random dude’s micro-penis.
Double-chinned Maggie Gallagher and failed metrosexual Brian Brown of the group National Organization Against for Marriage declared war against DC marriage equality. Here is the NOM reaction to the same-sex marriage bill.
(WASHINGTON) – The National Organization for Marriage (NOM) released the following statement today in response to the D.C. Council’s passage of a same-sex marriage bill:
“The people of D.C. have a right, guaranteed by the charter, which is D.C.’s constitution, to vote to protect marriage. Politicians on the city council are acting as if they have the right through legislation to deprive citizens of D.C. of their core civil right to vote, but we will not let them get away with it,” said Brian Brown, Executive Director of NOM. “We have one message for David Catania and the rest of these politicians today: this fight is not over. We will go to Congress, we will go to the courts, we will fight for the people’s right to vote and we will win!”
NOM has led successful campaigns to protect marriage in states across the country, including victories in California in 2008 and most recently in Maine in November, 2009, as well as legislative battles to block gay marriage in New York (where gay marriage failed in the Senate by a lopsided vote of 38 no to 24 yes).
To schedule an interview with Brian Brown, Executive Director for the National Organization for Marriage, please contact Elizabeth Ray, eray@crcpublicrelations.com, (x130) or Mary Beth Hutchins, mhutchins@crcpublicrelations.com, (x105) at 703-683-5004.
Since NOM is declaring a war, Culture Warrior will be declaring a war. It will be a war against stupidity. Same-sex marriage is here to stay.
